# Nature-Inspired Ceramic Candles Jacques Cavallier Belletrud Develops LV's New Scented Candles By Amy Duong | Published 2018-10-02 | Luxury Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jacques-cavallier-belletrud References: [hypebeast](https://hypebeast.com/2018/10/louis-vuitton-ceramic-candles-marc-newson-release-date) & [louisvuitton](https://www.louisvuitton.com/) Master perfumer Jacques Cavallier Belletrud works in collaboration with French luxury house Louis Vuitton on a candle collection. The collection is comprised of four [scented candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scented-candle-1) encased in ceramic pots designed by Marc Newson, who has previously worked with the label on designing its Les Parfum bottles. Every single candle has a handle attached to it and it is carefully crafted from [natural leather materials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/les-essences-de-diptyque) and attached to a metal stud. There is also a lid that boasts a gold metal finish, the piece also functions as a coaster as well. In terms of the scent, Belletrud wanted to encapsulate the [natural smell of nature](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diptyque-6) into something that also falls under the category of Louis Vuitton's essence. The concept in mind was a vision of buildings with windows open as a gentle breeze blows inside. Every candle is meant to give off its own natural experience -- the L'Air du Jardin gives of rosebud spirits, the Feuilles d’Or gives off a sense of walking through a forest, Île Blanche evokes fresh cotton and warmth of the sun, and finally, Dehors II Neige recalls snowy nights by the Fireside. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.9/10 - Popularity: 43% | Activity: 35% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/luxury) > [Ultra Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/ultraluxury) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Nature-inspired Ceramic Candles:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the home fragrance industry by incorporating natural materials and unique designs. - **Luxury Collaborations:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the luxury industry by partnering with master perfumers to create exclusive scented products. - **Sensory Experience:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the retail industry by creating products that provide unique and immersive sensory experiences. ### Who This Affects Most - **Home Fragrance:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the home fragrance industry by incorporating natural materials and unique designs. - **Luxury Goods:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the luxury industry by partnering with master perfumers to create exclusive scented products. - **Retail:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the retail industry by creating products that provide unique and immersive sensory experiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Globally Influenced Perfume Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/perfume-atlas.md) - [Sophisticated Candle Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sophisticated-candle-collection.md) - [Limited-Edition Fragrance Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collectors-copper-bottle.md) - [Botanical Scented Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cyprs-21-indigo.md) - [Graphite-Scented Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bougie-graphite.md) - [Limited-Edition Artistic Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/michle-lamy.md) - [Luxe Fragrant Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-maker-gardener-candle.md) - [Parisian Romance-Inspired Candle Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-home-fragrance.md) - [Vibrant Vanilla Bean Fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fantasmagory-fragrance.md)
